Learning Targets Students will be able to: 1. Explain what a leaf is and its parts. 2. Know the difference in compound and simple leaves. 3. Explain how to identify leaves from other ways.

Leaves – the real work horses: Main function: to make food and other chemicals needed for growth and reproduction Where Photosynthesis takes place ARS photo.

Why do leaves turn colors? The chlorophyll dries up Give it its color change

Leaf Parts Margin Vein Blade Petiole Midrib

Main leaf parts: Blade: broad, thin part of the leaf NRCS graphic

Main leaf parts: Petiole: narrow cylindrical part, may not be apparent

Main leaf parts: Margin: Edge of leaf Margin

Leaf Margins Entire Smooth margins Wavy Waved margins Serrate Sharp margins Angular Sharp Wavy sharp margins Lobed/Notched Open loops

Main leaf parts: Veins: Structural framework of the leaf

Leaf Veins Venation (veins) – parallel, pinnate, palmate, forked U.S. Geological Survey drawings

Main leaf parts: Midrib: Large center vein Midrib

2 types of leaves: Simple leaf with one blade Examples: grasses, oak, apple Compound several leaflets May be joined to the petiole or along the central axis of the leaf. U.S. Geological Survey graphics

Leaves and Branching Patterns Alternate Leaves alternate each other Opposite Leaves are opposite each other Whorled Leaves in a swirl pattern
